MIR. Drexel, who Is recognized as one Of

senior member OF the firms that took o
prominent part in tho reorganization OF
the Baltimore 4 Ohio railroad. .s
"The stories that have been published
from time to time about a Htringency In
the money market have been exag.
gerated," said Mr.. Drexel. TN fact there
has been no Btringency in the money
market. There has been, to certain ex.
tent, timidity In some circles 70 let out
money, but not to the extent the public
has been led to believe. OF course In
buAlness affairs ever and anon the unex.
pec!ed Is happening, but consider that
to-day the financial condition OF the couu.
try Is good. Yes, read the published In.
terview with MIR. Dspew. 1t is true that
there has beon an imitation OF real estate
in the West, but not to the extent that II
Is likely to react against the prosperity Of
the country. It will be checked before II
reaches that stage. ,,5Js liBrNT
"As I said, business at present Is good,
not only In sections, but generally through.
ont the country. We are now on a good
solid foundation. While 1t Is still little
early to make predictions for the coming
year, consider that the future outlook Is
bright. There is no reason why this pros.
perity should not continue, l think there
will be Q fair demand for money for the
balance Of the year. There Is always q
tightening ol the money market at the end
Of each year, and this may be expected
about next January. I consider, however,
that the present outlook points to next
year as the one that will ba prosperous"
